On 23/12/14, Ralf R Radermacher, discombobulated, unleashed: >Haven't been able to do any serious shoot-out with my other lenses >because of the darned wind that's still strong enough to rattle even my >sturdy Berlebach wooden tripod. I'm seriously fed up with this weather.
I know how you feel. My Sachtler Video 18 holds up well in the wind but the problem is using the end of the bottle - the wind slaps and pulls at the setup and makes it difficult to get a steady shot. My sister and brother in law are sleeping in a caravan while they build their new house on the Isle of Coll, Inner Hebrides. There is no other island westwards of Coll so they've been taking the full brunt of the storms. Numerous lightning strikes have fries modems and part of the power grid, and the caravan is literally tied down. -- Cheers, Cotty ___/\__ Broadcast, Corporate, || (O) | Web Video Production ---------- <www.seeingeye.tv> _____________________________ -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
